* Tachometer setup becomes hassle-free: Setting up Ext. Sync. input and reading | * '''Tachometer setup''' becomes hassle-free: Setting up Ext. Sync. input and reading shaft speeds correctly is now easier than ever! <br> | ||
When pulses from tachometers are acquired by Ext. Sync. inputs, user needs to know the delivered outputs in order to correctly set up parameters such as threshold, coupling, range peak and so on. In addition, properly setting up max speed, which is linked to the shaft speed, is crucial for a successful rotating machine analysis. However, sometimes it could be difficult for the users to understand all these settings. | When pulses from tachometers are acquired by Ext.

The most common rotating speed sensors, such as keyphasor from a monitoring rack, are now available in the transducer database. User simply selects the sensor from the transducer list, and the tachometer settings are ready. | |||

Measuring vibrations on multi-shaft machines such as gear boxes may require positioning several tachometer sensors. For a non-accessible shaft, RPM speed can be computed by using the gear ratio setting. This fractional tachometer feature has been extent, and the ratio can be up to 100 now!
